Review: Bud Light Seltzer Retro Summer

by Jeff Ellingson

Bud Light Seltzer Retro Summer was just released in a tie dyed themed 3 flavor 12 can variety pack.  Bud Light Seltzer Frozen Icicles are coming soon and will be packaged with the same three flavors and also contain 5% alcohol.  Not only is Bud Light releasing new hard seltzer varieties at an incredible rate, but several Anheuser Busch owned breweries are producing their own hard seltzers.  I think a hard seltzer fan could celebrate the Forth of July by drinking one A-B owned hard seltzer per day, every day, until Thanksgiving and never drink the same A-B owned seltzer twice.  The three flavors Cherry Limeade, Blue Raspberry, and Summer Ice all bring up thoughts of frozen slushies or snow cones.  Blue Raspberry was created in Cincinnati in 1958 by Gold Medal, a company that wanting to differentiate their raspberry flavored snow cones with blue color, as their Cherry, Strawberry, and Watermelon flavors were already red.  Cherry Limeade is most associated with Sonic and their Cherry Limeade.  By the way Sonic just released a hard seltzer and one of their flavors is also Cherry Limeade.  Finally Bud Light Summer Ice, even has ice in it’s name.  Each 12 ounce slim can contains the usual cold fermented cane sugar, natural flavors, and malted rice found in every Bud Light Seltzer.  Stevia leaf extract typically found in Hard Seltzer lemonades is added to all three flavors, and food coloring is blended in two of the three varieties of Bud Light Seltzer Retro Summer.

Bud Light Seltzer Cherry Limeade:  It pours to a bright pink color.  The aroma leads with candied cherry.  Sweet lime follows.  The cherry bubblegum entry is joined by Lime Lifesaver.  It fades with tart maraschino cherry and lime Jell-O and finishes with Cherry Sweet Tart and stevia taste.  This is sweet but not horribly sweet.  The taste however is more like a hard soda than a hard seltzer.  My guess is if you like cherry limeade you will very much like this seltzer.

Grade: B-

Bud Light Blue Raspberry:  It pours to a Robins egg blue color.  The aroma is tart raspberry with a lemon backing.  The Blue Raspberry cotton candy entry is joined by lemon building to a blue raspberry bubblegum peak.  It fades with raspberry gummy and lemonade flavor and finishes with Blue Raspberry Sour Patch Kids, lemon drop, and Oreo cream filling taste.

Grade: C+

Bud Light Summer Ice:  It pours to a cloudy carbonated lemonade color.  The aroma has fruit punch notes with lemon, cherry, orange, and berry all present.  The lemon and Cherry Airhead candy entry is joined by berry building to a fruit punch peak.  It fades cherry licorice, candy orange slice, and Captain Crunch Berries flavor, leaving sour fruit punch gummy worm taste.
